Reddam House is an independent, co-educational, non-denominational, day school, located in Woollahra (Pre-School to Year 9) and Bondi (Years 10 to 12), both Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
The very first Reddam House was established in Cape Town, South Africa in January 2000. In Australia, the school was launched in Sydney by Mr. Graeme Crawford in June 2000. Publicised as a "dynamic, contemporary and creative schooling environment", it was created by a major renovation at the previous Taylors College in North Bondi.
The school attracted media attention with reports 36 percent of students, six times the state average, received "special consideration" in the 2006 HSC.[2]

Reddam House started as a Years 7 to 11 school in 2001 at the current Bondi Campus. The school grew quickly and a new campus at Woollahra, near the Bondi Junction train and bus terminals, was opened in 2003. The new Woollahra Campus enabled the opening of the Reddam House Primary School (Years K to 6) and the restructuring of the High School into a High School (Woollahra) and a Senior School (Bondi).
In addition to this Reddam House opened in Johannesburg Bedfordview as well as in Cape Town and Constantia.
The Reddam House Bondi Campus hosts Years 10, 11 and 12. The Woollahra Campus hosts Pre-School to Year 9. Reddam also has brother schools started by members of Mr Crawford's family. In Cape Town,South Africa Reddam Atlantic Seaboard and Reddam Constantia were started by his sister Mrs Sheena Crawford-Kempster. In Johannesburg, South Africa Reddam, Bedfordview (Main Campus and BCC Campus) were started by his father Mr Robert Crawford and Mrs Dalene Quayle, Mr Graeme Crawford's eldest sister.
